The files have those permissions, but the directory itself isn't
writable by named.

Neither, AFAICT. It's by design. Slaves are meant to go in the
slaves subdir, with is writable by named. This is for security. It
limits the amount of damage someone can do with a bind exploit by
limiting the permissions the named user/group has. (Not that bind has
ever had remote exploits. ;)

I think you'll want to fiddle with the settings for notify and/or
also-notify[1]:
notify
If yes (the default), DNS NOTIFY messages are sent when a zone
the server is authoritative for changes, see the section
called "Notify". The messages are sent to the servers listed
in the zone's NS records (except the master server identified
in the SOA MNAME field), and to any servers listed in the
also-notify option.
If explicit, notifies are sent only to servers explicitly
listed using also-notify. If no, no notifies are sent.
The notify option may also be specified in the zone statement,
in which case it overrides the options notify statement. It
would only be necessary to turn off this option if it caused
slaves to crash.
It seems to me that if you set notify to no in the zone config for
localdomain on the slave, that would prevent it from trying to notify
itself. But I'm going on reading the manual, not on having done this
within a reasonable period of time in the past.

Yourself? Isn't that who the government is always protecting you
from?

I have to decide between two equally frightening options. If I wanted
to do that, I'd vote.
